GB Maxibasketball wants to recruit more coaches and sports science personnel ahead of FIMBA’s 17th World Maxibasketball Championship 2025 in Ticino, Switzerland. Player interest in the national masters programme has swelled following coverage of the England, Scotland and Wales teams’ exploits at the 2024 35+ Tri-Nations tournament, as well as GB’s multiple age-group successes at the 12th European Maxibasketball Championship in Italy.
GB Maxibasketball Programme Director, Sadie Mason MBE, said: “We are anticipating an increase in the number of GB teams that will compete at the World Champs in Switzerland and this will require additional coaches and support staff to join the programme. We therefore invite expressions of interest from qualified coaches – Level 2 and above – and sports science professionals to join us, with a view to coaching and supporting our training camps and to travel with the teams to Switzerland.”
This is a voluntary commitment to support four to six training camps from September 2024 to June 2025. The programme offers the chance to develop and widen skills in a performance environment, plus international experience at the World Championships in Switzerland on the 27 June to 6 July 2025. There will also be an opportunity to attend various preparatory masters basketball events in the UK and Europe.
